Key to safeguarding AlUla’s environment, will be the implementation of this Sustainability and Environmental for Construction Management, which outlines how environmental assets shall be assessed, managed and maintained during the construction program. RCU intends to provide all contractors with clear direction on how to consider the environment when Proceeding with development within the county, including assessing how environmental risks can be avoided during the construction program.

Area Class B Medium density residential areas High density residential areas and areas containing a mixture of residential and Area Class C commercial activities ‘Area Class D Including commercial areas and markets Carbon Emission Carbon emission is the release of carbon into the atmosphere exceeding the normal proportions, which is generated from burning fossil fuels: coal, oil, and natural gas, causing increasing of global warming climate change. Dark Sky outdoor lighting is designed to direct light to the ground, not up into Dark Sky Light ° ark sky Le! the sky where it can contribute to light pollution When you measure noise levels with a sound level meter, you measure the intensity of noise called decibel units (dB)... On the decibel scale, the quietest Decibel (d8) audible sound (perceived near total silence) is 0 dB. A sound 10 times more powerful is 10 dB. A sound 100 times more powerful than near total silence is 2048 Environment ‘The surroundings in which humans exist and which comprise: (a) the land, water and atmosphere of the earth; (b) micro-organisms, plant and animal life; (c) any part or combination and interrelationships; and the physical, chemical, aesthetic/visual, historical, cultural and economic properties and conditions of the foregoing that can influence human health and wellbeing.

Within the AlUla Geographical 8oundaries two levels of ESIA are recognized, a SEE and a Scoping ESIA. Please refer to the December 2021 document titled “Guidelines for Environmental and Social Impact Assessment in AlUla County” for a full description of the necessary environmental due diligence. Environmental Impact ‘Any negative or positive change that affects the environment as a result of engaging in any activity. Impacts can be classified in terms of: + Direct impacts - impacts that result directly from Development activities generally occurring within the physical footprint of the Development (including Development infrastructure and the incremental transportation and energy infrastructure required to support it), such as the removal of flora during site grading; + Indirect impacts - secondary impacts resulting from Development activities, generally occurring outside the immediate physical footprint of the Development, such as increased tourism in AlUla County and the associated impact this may have on fauna use in the region; ‘+ Transboundary ~ those that may affect countries other than the country in which a project will be constructed and operated; ‘+ In-combination where two or more impacts have the same or similar effect on the same receptors, the combined impact may be different from the impact in isolation or the sum of their individual parts; and ‘© Cumulative impacts ~ an impact that results from incremental changes caused by other past, present, or reasonably foreseeable actions by others outside of the Project scope together with those from the Project, for example the incremental noise from a number of separate developments. Light pollution Light pollution is excessive, misdirected, or obtrusive artificial (usually outdoor) light. Too much light pollution has consequences: it washes out starlight in the night sky, disrupts ecosystems, has adverse health effects and wastes energy.

AIR QUALITY Introduction for Air quality The sources of air pollution are many, and the various types of land transportation are the main source of air pollution due to the large number of vehicles and the proximity of people to the vehicles and their daily use of the vehicles producing dangerous toxins. Carbon Monoxide Carbon monoxide is a colorless, tasteless, and odorless gas that is very poisonous and is called the "silent killer." Hydrocarbon Hydrocarbons cause effects such as eye irritation, itching, drowsiness, dizziness, and disorders not to mention the long-term effects of the possibility of cancer and genetic changes within the body. Diesel Gas Diesel gas consists of particles of black impurities (soot), which are small, solid or liquid particles present in the air and have a negative effect on the human respiratory system, as they can bypass the mucous filters of the respiratory system and then penetrate the lungs. Since preservation of the environment has become one of the most important challenges which we are facing on construction programs, then focusing on preservation has become an absolute Sustainability and Environment for Construction Managementnecessity. adcll Akadlaod éyStol dipall Royal Commission for AlUia RCU is striving to reduce carbon emissions and vehicle emissions and reduce them to levels lower than locally and globally recognized. 5.2.1. 5.22. 5.2.3. 5.2.4, 525. 5.2.6. 5.27. 5.28. 5.2.9.
